I can't believe Charla. I thought she cared for Dave and she said herself that she couldn't have gotten there without him. She really just displayed what was in her heart.
"For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also. " Luke 12:34
If you want to know what's on a person's heart, just look at their pay stubs. Money is a magnifier. It amplifies what's really on your heart. Money displayed what's really on Charla's heart:CHARLA DOESN'T REALLY CARE ABOUT DAVE.
Charla is a horrible person for doing that to Dave. He had her back all the way. He would have given her half that money if he had won. She would not have won if he didn't keep her on all the times he could have had her off. I was rooting for her to stay on the show. I think along with lots of other people that she is a selfish, inconsiderate witch with a B. Poor Dave! So, much for friends! With friends like that who needs enimies?? I think she should be totaly ashamed of herself!
I am sooooo disappointed in Charla. I have not watched it yet. I recorded it to view later. But I read some of these posts here and I'm just confused about Charla, and I can't believe it. I wanted her to win, BUT with Dave. I feel so bad for David now.
I too feel very very sorry for Dave.
I never expected this from Charla. All along I was also rooting for them and Now she has displayed her actual nature on seeing money ! Charla - you do not have any future..You can never make friends. You are a Big Cheat !
Dave - now you know the real feelings of Charla for you. She has been lying all the time to get to the finale with your help.Now you can forget Charla once and for all.
Charla played him ... so well. All the talk about friends and all was just crap. Karma is a *****. The money will be gone in 5 years and so will her youthful looks and figure.
1.) Dave was loyal to Char the whole time.
2.) Dave would give her half the money if he had the chance and she knows it.
3.) Charla was greedy.
4.) Toni/Mel had a part in her change of mind.
5.) It was wrong.
6.) I lost a lot of respect for her.
7.) I wanted them to all win and so did Paradise Hotel Producers. Char blew it at the end. She should have given him the money. All I wished for was that the fab four the barbies could all win...all four. They had the chance too my dream almost came true till Char screwed it all up.
8.) Dave played the GAME THE BEST.
9.) If it werent for Dave Char wouldn't be there.
For those of you who say Char did the right thing because...
1.) Dave lied and backstabbed.
Your wrong. They all lied. Dave made ONE lousy mistake and what did he do it for? Any guesses...he did it to keep Char in the game.
It is pretty sad to make it all that way and then at the very last week Dave make a flub and then Charla doesn't share the cash. Yes, I think Dave was surprised allot about her "caring" "friendship". I was rooting for the fab 4 and felt they always had each others backs..all I think about is when Dave was teased by Andon re: his big ears beings freaks of nature..as Andon put it and all the verbal atacks and how DAVE stuck up for Charla..how Charla made comments of wanting to quit and she had support from the 4 of them and especially Dave doting over her. She let outsiders who treated her badly "nurture her and persuade her" it is so sad. I feel bad for Dave and hope he realizes it was never true friendship-it was a game and thats all the two of them were..a game.
Think about it, who else would have roomed w/ DAve? Who else would have roomed w/ Charla? They needed each other to win, Dave was the true winner along w/ Keith who I feel played very well and Tara. I think K and T are terrific and most graceful at the end of the show-even though K said the trip to Vegas. I guess some people have true heart and can have by gones be bygones and move forward. It taks a strong true person to do that. '
May Charla find interpeace w/ her decision it's really too bad but thats the way it goes. Dave not only was picked on and has a broken heart but lost the money too..I know he will succeed in life and it's really too bad Charla has such a closed mind. I think she is still just pretty young and will someday realize. I am sure people are giving her face to face opinions ..perhaps shes watched herself on tv and regrets it? We will never know what is truely in her heart-I think she is young, persudable and made a HUGE mistake.
I would have done the same thing. I see her reasoning in it. Why give money to someone you thought you knew and you trusted. He screwed all of that up once he started trying to play Keith against Scott and Holly. He ****ed up end of story. If he wouldn't have lied she would have given him the money.
charla would never have given dave the money, because she turnrd out to be as classless and shallow as the others, but she wasn't even upfront about it. Dave waited on her hand and foot and took her abuse, but "her career" was more important than a friend. she showed her ass, just like the others (except for Keith) in the end (no pun intended). LOSER!
savy no offence but did you see the episodes? Your going to honestly say you wouldn't give the guy THAT GOT YOU WHERE YOU WERE half the money? Then I think your greedy. Everyone lied and even Keith went behind Dave's back...how come know one says he doesnt deserve it? I'm not trying to be rude but thats just called being greedy. Who wouldnt lie? The only reason Dave lied to Keith is to keep CHARLA in the game and if possible himself. Like he said money wasnt worth the friendship and she should have taken that into sonsideration and gave him half. Or at least something? If it werent for all the **** he did for her she wouldn't have the money she does now. So uhh ohh sombody needs a change. Dave played the game the BEST and deserved at least a peice of the share.
Well Put!!!!!!!!!!! Charla is a winner because of MAINLY DAVE! Although keeping tara and keith's back helped! In the end she showed her true friendship isn't worth s***!!!!!!! What a selfish B****. I was routing for her and the other 3 of Fab 4. I am glad that Keith won but am sooo sorry that Charla got that honor and the money! She doesn't deserve the money or Daves' sincere friendship! If she is ever on another TV show or on a magazine, book cover, etc, I will never watch it! Or buy it! I hope that if she does try to give Dave any money that he tells her to stick it, and her so called friendship where the sun don't shine! Up her bony butt!!!!!!
Regardless of how she got to the final four, when it came right down to it in the final vote Charla won that money all on her own. After winning 250,000 fair and square she had the choice of keeping it for herself or giving half of it to a guy who she had only met him a few months earlier and under completely surreal circumstances. She does not know him AT ALL outside of this massive televised role-playing game. Why on earth would she give away $125,000 to him? Sorry folks....she's was not being selfish; she was being smart.
But then people say, "she should have given him the money because he would have given it to her if he had won." Well this argument is flawed on two major levels. 1.) Dave would not have won...ever....no way, no how....so that's not an issue. How can you say what he would have done if he won the money when we all know that that is one decision he would NEVER have had to have made. 2.) If the money ended up going to the person who got the least amount a votes and Dave did miraculously manage to come out of that game with the "ultimate prize" then yes, he probably would have given it to Charla. Would he have done this as a selfless act? No. He would have done it because he's a fool. He would have done it because he adores Charla and matters of the heart make people do crazy things. Does this make him fundamentally superior to selfish Charla? Hardly.
Now Keith had the best of both worlds. Does giving the money to Tara make him fundamentally superior to selfish Charla? NO! But it makes it appear that way on national television. Did he give her the money as a no strings attached act of generosity? Of course not. He did it for two reasons. 1.) because he was sleeping with Tara and he's a silly starry eyed kid. He already had long term plans with Tara so then why not give her half of it? Of course this is the kind of thing that will most likely come back to bite him in the ass when the 15 minutes wear off and he realizes he doesn't know this girl at all and they break up and she's 125,000 richer. and 2.) because it's good PR for him. On the surface it makes him look like a saint on national television, But the truth his, he plans on having Tara in his life for the long run, which means he'll also have her money in his life for the long run. He didn't give up the money at all, it just looks like he did on camera....until, like I said above, they split up and he ends up the jackass.
ok wickedlame your lame. I dont even want to explain myself again. You obviuosly dumb in the head and you dont get nothing were saying. g00dbuy. plus i didnt read yyour whole post next time try making it a bit smaller this isnt school we dont need paragraphs of bullcrap. all i needed to read was the beginning that gave away how stupid you are. first you say dave would never ever win so dont even bring that up....but then your next sentence is if dave won? you just said he wouldnt dumbass....so leave it at that. the only reason char won is because keith was with her....with out that last twist char/dave would have LOST. now buy
I agree with you wicked. What we all have to remember is that she did not give him the money because he lied or she felt as though she couldn't trust him. She was going to give him the money. She said, "There's nothing to think about." The reason she did not give him the money was so that she would have enough to start her career. It had nothing to do with how Dave acted throughout the show. Had the producers not switched the couples, she would not have won. All the previous guests, even Zach, complained on the fact that Charla was with Dave and it made it worse on them because they wanted to vote for her. Everyone is right, Dave is the reason why she lasted as long as she did---but he is not the reason why she won.
